Massive game. Line speed and second contact will be the key. It's so easy to say but shutting down French and Field is the thing. Minchella is a massive miss for us, Batchelor needs to justify his well deserved big contract. Step up Mikey, it's time.
If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical; but it must be a struggle.

Is Minchella definitely not playing? He’s in the 21-man squad. It be a swift return given the original prognosis, admittedly.
I won’t edit the thread title to ‘World’s’. In case it is some clever wordplay that I’m missing. And I’m lazy.
Enjoy it. Do an extra little air punch for me if they win.

It's a typo squire, man that was immense. Like you say on the other thread, first rubbish Golden point we've won this season. 2016, last game of the season, lose Golden Point to Huddersfield, the lose Golden Point to Salford, relagated, I then had the pleasure of England vs. NZ at the Olympic Stadium, lost, Golden Point. I was hot hapo6 with rugby league.
Superb today, not perfect, intnthe effort was fantastic. Kennedy's best game in a Rovers shirt, Batch excellent. Parcell really made a difference.
Matty Pete's comments in defeat were all class.
I'm going to take the credit for this win, I got Shorrocks sent off, as the second half kicked off he was stood right by me and he definitely heard me shout "Shorrocks, you're boll£$%×", ninety seconds later, he's correctly sent off. Don't think it was malicious, but you can't do that in the game today.
Huge respect to The Pies, played an entire half with twelve and their intensity and desire never dropped, testament to their fitness.
